Color chart not repeating itself
Hi All 🙂
I need to make a plot where I have 150 different cities as my legend. The issue is now that the color chart is not repeating itself and just chooses random colors. How can I make it such that I have 8 colors repeating themselves up to all 150. So in case I choose City number 2 and 102 they are both within the same selection of colors.

This is what I get when I choose 2 different cities and this is NOT what I want, since they are not within the chosen color chart.
Thanks in advance
Hi Anonymous ,
How about something like so?
Color = SWITCH ( TRUE (), MAX ( 'Table'[Category] ) IN { "A", "D", "G" }, "Red", MAX ( 'Table'[Category] ) IN { "B", "E", "H" }, "Yellow", MAX ( 'Table'[Category] ) IN { "C", "F" }, "Blue" )For more details, please check the attached .pbix file.

Hi Anonymous ,
When you add a legend to your chart you can only select the colours manually so for this you would need to go city by city and select the colours.

Thank you for your answer 🙂
Is there any way I can avoid doing it manually?
What if I have 500 cities next time? That would very tedious...
